Mallala and State Race Series Meetings

[RaceTime]

For anyone that was at Mallala last Saturday, maybe they can shed some light on the following 2 questions:

1. Why does it take Mallala so long to publish results from the meeting? 6 days this time (admittedly, quicker than some of the events held at the track - some don't even get published!)

2. Why is Mallala the ONLY race track in Australia that is still using manual timing at State Level? I have heard the 'cutting cost' excuses before - but 10 years AFTER everyother track in the country has gone electronic for virtually everything (including sprint meetings these days) why are they still using manual (ie 1/100th second) timing together with all its inherent inaccuracies??
